Ah yes, my bad, I had forgotten about this pull request.

Since the code has been broken for quite a while, I don't see a big
urgency to get it in in the last week of a new release, but I can
easily be persuaded differently. Had I done the pull, I would probably
have merged them into fixes-non-critical myself.

But, as I said, I don't have strong opinions on the matter. :)
